Last year was hard, but life goes onHold my head against the wallLearn the right from wrong

They say my ghetto instrumental, detrimental to kidsAs if they can't see the misery in which they liveLately, for the outcome, damn I'm recklessCheck it, you don't have to bump this but please respect it

I took a minus and now the hard times are behind usTurned into a plus, now they stuck livin' blindedHennessey got me feelin' bad, time to stop drinkin'Rollin' in my drop top Jag, what's that cops thinkin'?

Sittin' in my car watch the stars and smokeI came along way but still I got so far to goDear mama, don't worry, I'm a watch for snakesThey'll set you that a lover but it's hard today

I got the letter that she sent meAnd I cried for weeksThis one came out when I tried to speakAll I heard was

One, two, three, fourI see bloods and crips runnin' up the hill.Lookin' for a better wayMy brothas and sistas, it's time to bail'Cuz even thug niggas pray

Hopin' God hear meI entered the game, look how much I changeI'm no longer innocent, casualties of fameMade a lot of money, seen a lot of placesAnd I swear I seen a peaceful smile on my mama's face

When I gave her the keys to her own houseThis your land, your only son done became a manWatchin' time fly, I love my people do or dieBut I wonder why we scared to let each other fly

June 1 6 7 1The day mama pushed me out her womb, told me "Nigga get paid"No one can understand me, the black sheep.Outcasted from my familyNow packin' heat, I run the streets a young runawayLive for the day when ya die I could hear ya say
